20V Intercooler strapping

[Taka Mizutani]

Then explain why Simple Green used full-strength corroded the aluminum
intake
manifold, even when cold and rinsed with plenty of cold water?

The citrus cleaners don't do this- I'd recommend using a citrus-based
degreaser rather
than Simple Green. You need to use a strong one, though- the stuff
formulated to
degrease bike chains and stuff like that works great. The stuff you see in
Home Depot
in the spray bottle called "citrus degreaser" is way too weak.
